4th Street Food Co-op gets new signage — 12 years later

When the sign went up at the 4th Street Food Co-op, it was only meant to be temporary. That was back in 1998.



But now! There's a new logo, based on a design by contest winner Lauren Ruggeri. The winning logo was selected by vote from the entire co-op membership. The final touches on the logo will be added today, and will eventually be added to the co-op's website.
